Re: Boating in Ohio
Hi jpg,<br /><br />Not a Rinker owner but I do boat on Buckeye Lake and Alum Creek. I used to own a drive thru carryout just west of the north launch ramp in Buckeye Lake. Buckeye Lake is fine since it's so close to my house. I live in Reynoldsburg, but the water is somewhat nasty and you have a lot of people who are clueless about how to actually boat. Alum Creek is nice IF it's not Friday, Sat. or Sun. There you have the exact opposite of the hillbilly element of Buckeye Lake. You have people who put boats in Alum Creek that only belong somewhere like Lake Erie. Also, at Alum Creek, I have never seen more people know less about the proper way to wait your turn to launch or retrieve your boat. I avoid that place like the plague on weekends. Sometimes rude, snooty people. Now, with that said, I think the best kept secret in local boating for central Ohio is Seneca Lake. It's a little south-east of Salt Fork State Park (nice boating there by the way). It's bigger than Buckeye Lake and much deeper, has a nice island in the middle and the best thing is the people there are actually very pleasent AND for the most part, know how to launch/retrieve and conduct themselves on the water. Someone on iboats suggested Seneca Lake to me last year and it's been the best lake I've been to yet. I hope this helped and I hope you check out Seneca Lake, you'll like it alot.

Ramp hoggers that haven't started their "boat" for 2 years.<br /><br /><br />We finally said screw it to that place and head up to Erie.
